Installation Stage 1: The Oil Transfer Block

1. Follow the OE oil cooler removal procedures (which include the removal of the intake manifold and turbo charger).

NOTE: THERE ARE NUMEROUS UPGRADES AND UPDATES THAT CAN AND SHOULD BE

INSTALLED DURING THIS PHASE. YOU CAN PURCHASE THE APPROPRIATE UPDATE KIT FROM

BULLETPROOFDIESEL.COM SEARCH KEYWORD: “PROFESSIONAL”

2. Install the provided OE oil cooler gasket into the Bullet Proof Diesel (BPD) Oil Transfer Block.

3. Remove the OE Oil Filter Base from the OE Oil Cooler block and remove the used seals from the base.

4. Clean the seal groove of the OE Oil Filter Base and install the provided replacement seal.

5. Using the three (3) provided M6 x 12mm socket head cap screws and the remaining five (5) OE

Torx hardware, re-install the OE Oil Filter Base to the BPD Oil Transfer Block.

6. Be sure to remove all of the oil and debris from the HPOP reservoir.

7. Remove and discard the OE HPOP filter. The BPD Oil Transfer Block has an integral HPOP screen, made from stainless steel, which operates in place of the OE HPOP filter.

8. Use the OE bolts and torque specifications to install the BPD Oil Transfer Block.

Replace the OE Filter Housing Seal on the filter base. Do not reinstall the OE Filter housing and Oil Filter at this time, as it will be completed after the oil transfer hoses and intake manifold are installed.

9. Discard the OE silicone coolant hose. This is replaced by the 90° molded heater hose and spring clamps supplied in the kit. We recommend using the spring clamps over regular hose clamps due to the location and the difficulty involved with tightening regular hose clamps after the installation is complete. Spring clamps, by design, will tighten as the rubber relaxes.

10. Following the OE procedure, install the intake manifold. Do not install the OE Oil/Fuel Filter

Housing or charge air tubes.

OE Filter Housing Seal


NOTE: With the elimination of the blue silicone hose, you will need to secure the 90° molded heater hose to the EGR cooler in a different manner. It is recommended to use the provided spring clamps to properly secure the hose. It is important to note the routing of the hose over the EGR cooler and intake manifold as shown, as well as the position of the clamps.

2 spring clamps.

Please note: Be sure there is no interference between the clamp and the turbo pedestal.


11. Remove the Oil Filter Stand Pipe. This will make your hose routing and turbo installation easier.


Installation Stage 2: Oil Hose Installation and Routing

1. Install Coolant Hose #1 (90° Molded Coolant Hose) from EGR cooler towards the passenger side, over the EGR cooler and intake manifold as shown. Make sure to route the hose over the heater

hose.

2. Secure Oil Hose #1 (21.75”) to the Oil In port on the oil transfer block. Route this hose following the same path of the previously installed coolant hose.

3. Following the OE procedure, install the turbo. Do not install the OE Oil/Fuel Filter Housing, Oil

Standpipe or charge air tube yet.

4. Install Coolant Hose #2 from transfer block Coolant In port towards the passenger side, following the previously installed hoses. Make sure to Route over the heater hose.

5. Install Oil Hose #2 from transfer block Oil Out port towards the passenger side also following the

previously installed hoses. Make sure to route this hose behind the turbo oil feed line.

NOTE: Take caution when routing hoses and make sure they are not pinched or against any sharp edges. Pay special attention to hose routing around the altenator.

Installation Stage 3: The Oil Cooler Bracket, Oil Cooler, and Oil Cooler

Relocation Plate

1. Disconnect and remove passenger side battery and battery tray.

2. Vacuum reservoir removal is necessary for this installation; remove it and set it aside. Reservoir

relocation is suggested for proper functionality of your four wheel drive and A/C venting.


3. Install the three (3) vibration isolators using the three (3) M6 x 1.0 x12 nuts and three (3) M6

washers to the oil cooler relocation bracket.

4. Place the Bullet Proof Diesel oil cooler relocation bracket in the battery area on the passenger

side.

5. Place the battery tray on top of the bracket. Using the OEM existing hardware, bolt the tray into

place.


6. Using the OEM gaskets provided, place one (1) each of two (2) small rubber gaskets on the

bottom of the oil cooler relocation plate on the oil ports. Next, place one (1) each of two (2)

small rubber gaskets on the top oil cooler coolant ports. Carefully and properly line up the

relocation plate and oil cooler and firmly press together.

7. Using the OEM oil cooler hardware from the oil cooler removed earlier, bolt the new oil cooler to the

relocation plate.

Use only one (1) O-ring per coolant port.


8. Place the assembled oil cooler relocation plate and oil cooler into the bracket.

9. Secure using the using the three (3) M6 x 1.0 x12 nuts and three (3) M6 washers.


9. Carefully secure each coolant and oil hose to the proper 90° fittings on the Bullet Proof Diesel oil

cooler relocation plate.

NOTE: The coolant hose from the oil transfer block connects to the “Coolant In” port on the

remote adapter plate. The coolant hose that connects to the “Coolant Out” port should

connect to the EGR cooler.

10. Reinstall your battery. Leave your battery ground cable disconnected until the completion of

your installation.
